True-to-Model Yokosuka IJN Gray

Introducing Tamiya's 82115 LP-15 IJN Gray Gloss Lacquer Paint, a compact 10ml lacquer chosen by modellers aiming for authentic ship tones. The colour reflects the grey applied to Imperial Japanese Navy ships built at Yokosuka Arsenal, with vessels such as Shinano and Shokaku as examples.

Key Qualities for Hobbyists

The lacquer gives dependable results whether you airbrush for even coverage or brush small details. It creates a resilient membrane making it a practical basecoat that resists enamel layers, and its quick-drying profile helps maintain momentum on multi-step painting jobs.

Recommended Usage Notes

For best airbrush performance, use Tamiya's lacquer thinner to adjust viscosity and get a clean spray pattern. The paint is versatile across scale applications and provides a steady, realistic grey that enhances the finished appearance of models.

Yes, it is formulated for plastic models and will adhere well when applied to clean, prepared surfaces.
Using a suitable primer is recommended for best adhesion and uniform coverage, especially on varied plastics or heavily handled parts.
The gloss lacquer provides a solid base; you can seal it or alter the surface with appropriate matt or satin varnishes before applying washes and weathering techniques.
